viaStackSelection

Henri Revet

In .cdsenv the command:

     layout  viaStackSelection  boolean nil

does not work.

CIW gives me this message:

     *WARNING* envSetVal: Can't set the value of variable 'viaStackSelection',

     in tool[.parttion] 'layout' - it has not been registered.

Somebody has an idea what 's wrong ?

Thanks.

  • Hi Henri,

    The setting is not for the tool "layout" but for "graphic:

      graphic viaStackSelection boolean nil

    There are some viaStack* prefix variables for the layout tool, however:

      layout viaStackRows int 1
      layout viaStackColumns int 1
      layout viaStackMode cyclic "sameFootPrint"

    The above settings can be found in your installation hierarchy at <cds_root>/tools/dfII/etc/tools/layout/.cdsenv (or substitute "graphic" for "layout" to see the graphic variables, and so on for other tools)

    Hope this helps!

    Lawrence.

  • Hi Lawrence,

    The Cadence help is showing "layout" for this variable.

    They must be wrong.

    It is working now with "graphic".

    Thanks a lot.

  •  Hi Henri,

    I searched in COS for "viaStackSelection" and I only see a match for it in the IC615 documentation, and this correctly shows the variable for "graphic" - if I see a mistake in cdnshelp I will file a bug report against it, but I think that COS uses the same documentation source as the tools, so I would only to expect to find a mistake in an older release (say IC615 First Customer Shipment version) since COS does not have an error (which may mean there was a mistake which then got fixed in an ISR).

    However, I am glad that it this is now working for you, and I am happy to have helped.

    Best regards,
    Lawrence.
